INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 22.-The legislature
met i'll joint conuention at noon and took
one ballot for United States senator The
result was: Turpie. 73; Marrison. 70; Allen,
4. Two members were paired. For one
little moment a break of the deadlock was
thought possible to-day. When the roll
call was nearing Mackey's name Green
hacker Robinson passed down the aisle to
the formers seat. All eyes We're turned
upon the two men and their faces were
eagerly scanned. They conversed briefly
in low tones, and when Robinsons name
was called he responded, after a little hesi-
tation, Allen" The episode was watched
with most intense interest. 1t is surmised
that if an adjournment had not been taken
the deadlock would have been broken on
the next ballot.

AKRON, o., Jan. 22.-The charges of
and other gross irregularities at the county
intirmary came to a sensational climax to-
night in the arrest of DR.. A. n. Fouser, for
many years intirmary physician, on a
charge of body snatching. DR.. Fouser is
highly connected here, and is one of the
best known of the Akron physicians. The
act charged in the affidavit is said to have
been committed on April 81, 1886, but ii
has been known in certain circles for some
time that scarcely burial took place i'll the
intirmary grave yard. Boxes when handed
out contained stones, or when bodies were
taken out from the poor house and started
to the grave yard they
HAD NOT BEEN BURIED,
but were allowed to lie beside the grave
till after dark. Then they have been taken
to a down town office, nailed up. and
labeled glass" and shipped to Cleveland.
What adds gravity to the charge preferred
against DR.. FOuser is the fact that he has
been the only physician who attended the
inmates of the infrmary in illness and
charges are now pending investigation to
the effect that several inmates of the in
firmary have died from the lack of proper
care. One instance is cited in which the
intirmary physician was called to see all in-
mate in the afternoon, and after eXamna-
ton said nothing was the matter with her,
and the next morning she was found dead.
Another inmate named Dr. Carver, whose
sister lives in this city, died of scurvy,
it is said. for lack of vegetable food.
One named Wheeler died with terrible sores
on his body, and, it is said, his death was
attributed to neglect. There is reason to
believe that at least one more arrest will
be made in connection with the intirmary
grave robbery. Dr.. Kouser gave bond fol
his appearance next Tuesday. He seemed

THEIR WcGLXNN.
Charge That Archbishop COrrig a II
Did Not state the Case Fairly.

New YORK, Jan. GA friend of Dr.
McGlynn was interviewed this afternoon in
regard to the effect of Archbishop Corrigan's
letter upon the followers of tie former pas
tor of st. Stephens. He said:
The friends of DR.. Edward McGlynn are
not disturbed by the statement of Archbishop
Corrigan. They say that his grace has with
seeming unfairuess left out all that part of
the correspondence between him and Father
McGlynn which showed in favor of the priest.
In the letter of Dec. 20, quoted by his grace
as q fiat refusal of the priest to go TO Rome,
it is said that Father McGlynn gave impera-
tive personal and family reasons why he
should not 60 and that what is given as a
bold defiance Of the archbishop, was really
but q plain statement of Father McGynn'S
position, which, as he could not go to Rome
himself. he expected the archbishop with
whom he had held all discussion with the
holy see, to send to Rome. He intended
it written, in place of n
personal and verbal statement of his case to
the holy see. The archbishop knew that 10
give publicity to the reasons given by Father
McGlynn would distress both the father and
his family. Instead of saying that the
clauses quoted followed after reasons of the
priest for not going to Rome, his grace quoles
boldly, i will not go e Rome; have taught
the doctrine of com1bbn property in land,
and l will continue 10 teach without word
of explanation or intimation of the preced-
ing portions of what was sent as an excuse
by advice of DR.. Shrady, who now declares
that Father McGlynn's health was so bad for
the past six months that an ocean voyage
would seriously endanger his future useful
ness. Father McGlyun will write reply as
soon as he is well enough, and it will be
vertable bomb in the court of his grace"
The archbishop will pay no attention to
the challenge or Henry George. He says
he has already denied having issued in
structions to the priests regarding the con-
stitutional convention, and that is enough.

A yELoclPEnE For TEN SOLDIERS.
AiNOvel Multicyele That May Play an lmpor'
tant Part in Military Manepyers.
London Daily News.


London Daily News
People in many London thoroug hfares
must have been considerably astonished
yesterday by the appearance of strange
looking vehicle speeding swiftly along
propelled by ten riders, who sat all IN
row like the crew of an elongated univer-
sity rowing boat. This novelty in
NEE: of locomotiou was on its way to
Aldershot, where, by authority of the
War Office, it will be tested with view
to its adoption for military operations.
1t is the latest adaptation of the -four
in -haud" quadricycle, and it intended for
the rapid transport of infantry from one
point TO another.
When fully manned it carries twelve
mer, who can take witch them, if ordered,
light baggage-oart of ammunition
wagon. The advantages of mounting
men thus in single file, instead of two or
four abreast, are, first of all, that the
machine is more manageable, and, second
that, power for power, it presents less
surface to a strong headwind, one of the
obstacles most difficnlt for cyclists to
overcome.
rhe speed that can be got out of such
machine by ten or twelve moderate
riders is quite surdrisipg. Ten miles an
hour would be considered low average
rate, and sixteen have been easily accom-
plished.
1t is said to be affected less than any
other velocipede by any rodghness in
the thoroughfares, and il passes over
newly -metaled bits of road with compare
tive ease. All the tires are wired on the
Otto principle, so that they can not be
greatly damaged by cuts from sharp
stones. For men mounted thus there is
of course considerable saving III labor,
and probably other advantages might be
claimed from military point of view.
These, however, are points that will be
fully tested at Aldershot during the next
week or so.
Yesterday machine manned by ten
riders. who did not take their baggage
van with them, set out from Messrs. Sin
gers warehouse on Holborn Niaduct at
one o'clock, when the currents of traffic
were running strong in opposite direc-
tions. The whole control and steering of
the machine is in the hands of one man,
and he yesterday had no apparent diff
Guilty in managing it, even where the
thoroughfare was most densely crowded.
1t turned easily enough In less space IMAM
a hanson would have needed, and thread
ed it's way among many vehicles without
mishap, though the drivers of cabs and
omnibuses neglected their own business
to gaze at the strange apparition as IT
sped past them. The crew in charge of
this multicycle are all trained volunteers,
who will be able to execute any military
evolution that may be demanded of them
with intelligence, and altogether the
experiment is one in which military men
take lively interest. This latest novel
ty in velocipedes has not yet been sub
mitted to the agents of any Continental
power, and will be subjected to It's first
practical trial for military purposes at
Aldershot.

Repairing Girdled Trees.
American Agricultufist

Young fruit trees, especially apple
trees, girdled by mice and rabbits, are
seldom so badly injured as they appear
to be. Unless the inner part is complete
ly gone, they, with proper treatment, will
recover. Make a mixture of stiff clay and
COW manure, beating well, TO form a stiff
plaster, adding water, if needed. A thick,
ample coating of this is placed over the
wound, completely covering it, and is
wrapped around the old baggiRg or other
coarse fabric. The chief object of this
is to keep the whole moist while nature
heals the wound. In dry time it is well
to wet the bandage, etc. AS the supply
of sap islargely diminished by the wound,
the head of the tree should be reduced by
cutting back the branches. If the wound
is very severe, it is sometimes bridged
over by the use large cions, one end in
serted upon the bark below and the other
end above the wound. Unless a tree is
large and especially valuable, it will rare
ly pay to be at this trouble. Better re-
place the injured tree by another of the
same size and age
